Daddy's Girl

A conversation with Tabby.

Scene: Tabby an I are upstairs in my bedroom. We have just awoken from our customary 2-hour early evening nap. Matt is downstairs making “breakfast for dinner.” The smell of bacon wafts in on the evening air.

Me: “Ready to get up, Tabbers?”
Tabby: Yes!
Me: I think Daddy's downstairs making dinner. Are you hungry?
Tabby: Bacon?!?
Me (about to fall over laughing): You smell that too? Smells good. Let's go get some bacon!
Tabby (medatatively): I like bacon.
